Alasdair Macleod: Using gold as money in the Muslim world

Section: Daily Dispatches

7:20p ET Monday, January 23, 2017

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Muslims have special reason to use gold as money, GoldMoney research director Alasdair Macleod writes today, because the government currencies of Muslim countries have been especially vulnerable to devaluation. Macleod notes that GoldMoney has been designated as a vehicle for purchasing gold in compliance with Muslim law. Macleod's commentary is headlined "Using Gold as Money" and it's posted at GoldMoney's internet site here:
